Adidas Shuts Down Homophobia in a Single Instagram Post

Insert clapping hands emoji here.

Adidas took to Instagram on Sunday to celebrate Valentine's Day with a post of what looks like two women enjoying a post-workout embrace. The romantic photo is paired with the the caption "The love you take is equal to the love you make."

Since it was posted, the photo has gotten 225k likes and over 125k comments. While many of the comments were excited about the photo, not all of them were. Predictably, all the homophobic trolls on the internet decided to use the opportunity to leave nasty comments.

Without missing a beat, Adidas responded back with some grade-A sass.

One Instagram user, @azemann, wrote, "WTF ADIDAS???? THIS DAY IS FOR BOY AND GIRL, WHEN THEY ARE COUPLE. NOT FOR LESBIANS, STUPID ADIDAS," with two added eye-rolling emoji.

To which Adidas responded: "No, this day is for LOVE. Happy Valentine's Day," complete with a kiss emoji.

Adidas replied with a waving-hand emoji and another kiss emoji. Little does @americanhero123 know, but Nike also has an entire LGBTQ line called the Be True collection. Every June, Nike comes out with new products for Pride. Looks like there's nowhere for homophobic trolls to buy athletic wear that agrees with their offensive and outdated opinions.

This isn't the first time Adidas stood up against homophobia. The company recently added a new clause to its athletes' contracts that states their sponsorships won't be affected if the athletes decide to announce that they are gay, bi, or transgender, BuzzFeed News reported.
